You are mine

chapter 35

What's this noise?

The disturbance.

Coming from...

I furrow my eyebrows hard, turning on my side but quickly wince when minute pricks of hundreds of needles start up my numb arm that's been resting under me all night.

I hold it with my other hand and carry it, placing beside me at front.

A beautiful voice flows again.

A quran recitation?

I pat my hand on the bedside table blindly to turn off the alarm.

My hand meets the empty wood.

Wait...

I don't have my cellphone w...

"In them are maidens,"

My eyes flew open. And I squeeze them back shut when sun flares right inside them. As if searching for a buddy to play with.

"...restraining their glances,"

King?

I massage my eyes forcefully against the expanse of my palm and then look around.

A gasp escapes me as I'm ready to spring up when he holds me down by my shoulders.

Kneeling by the bed, he's looking right at me.

What a creep!

But why is he....

"Untouched before," he gazes right into my soul while his words pin me down clearing up the fog in my mind,"by any man or jinn."

All my instincts are locked up by his hypnotizing gaze. He leaned back, ran his both palms through his loose wavy bangs, effectively pushing them aside. Tilted his head. And leaned forward again. Resting his elbows on both knees.

Those eyes.

Still on me. All this time.

My God!
